DOG BITES
Thousands of people are viciously attacked by dogs every year. Many of the victims are children who are often severely traumatized. Dog bite victims are often bitten by dogs that are familiar to them, including dogs belonging to friends, family, and neighbors. These dogs often attack when they are surprised or frightened.
TRUCK ACCIDENTS
Large trucks, semi-trailers, and tractor-trailers are one of the leading causes of traffic-related deaths. They are dangerous. They are many times larger than typical passenger vehicles and often weigh up to twenty to thirty times more than passenger vehicles. They are slower to maneuver and require much more room to maneuver.
BURNS AND INJURIES
Burn victims often endure unimaginable injuries and pain. They endure painful procedures to keep their wounds from becoming infected and frequently require multiple reconstructive and plastic surgeries.
